The manifestation
techniques library
There are dozens of named manifestation techniques in circulation, and most explanations bury what you actually do under the promises. This is the other kind of reference: 80 techniques, each described in plain language (the steps, where it came from, and how widely it is practiced). Described, not graded; pick what fits.
